***Reminder: Deadline for volunteering for Nomcom is June 22 2016 *** The IETF nomcom appoints folks to fill the open slots on the IAOC, the IAB, and the IESG. Ten voting members for the nomcom are selected in a verifiably random way from a pool of volunteers. The more volunteers, the better chance we have of choosing a random yet representative cross section of the IETF population. The details of the operation of the nomcom can be found in RFC 7437, and BCP10/RFC3797 details the selection algorithm. Volunteers must have attended 3 of the past 5 IETF meetings. As specified in RFC 7437, that means three out of the five past meetings up to the time this email announcement goes out to start the solicitation of volunteers. The five meetings out of which you must have attended *three* are: IETF = 91 (Honolulu) \ 92 (Dallas) \ 93 (Prague) -*** ANY THREE! 94 (Yokohama) / 95 (Buenos Aires) / If you qualify, please volunteer. However, much as we want this, before you decide to volunteer, please be sure you are willing to forgo appointment to any of the positions for which this nomcom is responsible. As of today, we have 115 confirmed volunteers. 126 of those who ticked the box on the registration form for Buenos Aires have not yet responded. If you believe you have volunteered, and your name is NOT below, please contact me as soon as possible. Thank you for volunteering! The list of people and posts whose terms end with the March 2017 IETF meeting, and thus the positions for which this nomcom is responsible, are IAOC: Lou Berger IAB: Ralph Droms* Russ Housley* Robert Sparks Andrew Sullivan Dave Thaler* Suzanne Woolf IESG: Jari Arkko (GEN) Deborah Brungard (RTG) Ben Campbell (ART) Spencer Dawkins (TSV) Stephen Farrell (SEC)* Joel Jaeggli (OPS)* Terry Manderson (INT) Alvaro Retana (RTG) All appointments are for 2 years. The ART and Routing areas have 3 ADs and the General area has 1; all other areas have 2 ADs. Thus, all areas (with the exception of GEN) have at least one continuing AD. Current members tagged with a * have indicated that they will not accept another nomination to serve in their current role. The primary activity for this nomcom will begin in July 2016 and should be completed in January 2017. The nomcom will have regularly scheduled conference calls to ensure progress. There will be activities to collect requirements from the community, review candidate questionnaires, review feedback from community members about candidates, and talk to candidates. While being a nomcom member does require some time commitment it is also a very rewarding experience. As a member of the nomcom it is very important that you be able to attend IETF97 (Seoul) to conduct interviews. Being at IETF96 (Berlin) is useful for orientation. Being at IETF98 is not essential.
